And this, is why I'm stuck being a construction worker.

I asked that exact question to someone who OWNED a DNA and they didn't know why the ampersand was backwards <img src="<>/grin.gif" alt="grin" title="grin" height="15" width="15" />

I can't say with 100% certainty that's it, but it makes sense to me. Probably another Illuminati plot. Somebody get that Dan Brown character to write something about it.

This thread proves that there are only two types of people in the world who would understand this:

Those with too much free time, who may have been paid to come up with the logo.

Those with too much free time, with nothing to do but sit around and try to figure it out.

And, the rest of us idiots posting in response to this nonsense.

Wait, that's three types of people...

You forgot about the type that are drinking away the pain from the their swollen blisters and dust filled lungs from a day's work while slacked back in a chair staring at the ceiling.

Lol, no - it was supposed to be a PM and I apparently typed in the wrong box, got home, and went whoops.
